Customize your journey and explore freely! 💸 Ticket Information: Adults 40 RMB, students half price! 🧗‍♂ Hiking Tips: The south route takes about 1.5 hours round trip; the north route requires around 2.5 hours. Want to reach the top quickly? The cable car takes only 5 minutes to reach the eighth tower! 🏞 Great Wall Essentials: The north section has 12 segments, while the south section has 7. The south is relatively flat, and the north eighth tower is the highest point! The Hero Stone is at the north fourth, and Hero Tablets are scattered in several places on the south side. 🚀 Great Wall Gadgets: Cable car one-way 100 RMB, round trip 140 RMB; slide car 80 RMB, choose your comfort! 🚶‍♀ Classic Routes: 1⃣ Easy Hero Version: Cable car straight to north seven, walk to north eight, then cable car down, easily earn the hero title! 2⃣ Gadget Enthusiast: Cable car up, walk to north eight, slide car down, visit Black Bear Park, perfect! 3⃣ South-North Cable Car Version: Walk south first, then climb north, finally cable car down, enjoy both south and north views! 4⃣ South-North Slide Car Version: Explore south, rush north, slide car down, thrilling and fun! 5⃣ Challenge for the Strong: Walk both south and north, from south one to south seven, then north one to north twelve, a double challenge of stamina and scenery! 📸 Must-Visit Photo Spots: Hero Stone at north four, aerial cable car at north seven, Hero Slope at north eight, flower sea and red leaves at north ten, full view of the Great Wall at north twelve, Hero Tablet at south one, panoramic view of north Great Wall at south four, pines at south six, all perfect for photos! 🚗 Transportation Guide: 🚅 High-speed rail: Qinghe Station to Badaling Great Wall, half an hour. But tickets are hard to get during peak season, very inconvenient. 🚌 Bus: Take route 877 from Deshengmen to Badaling, 1.5 hours, cheap fare; however, departure times are uncertain, long waiting times, crowded buses, not ideal for those prone to motion sickness. 🚆 Suburban S2 Line: Huoying Station to Badaling, known as the "train to spring," with beautiful scenery along the way. However, fixed departure times lack flexibility, and waiting time is long. 👍🏻 #BadalingGreatWall #BadalingGreatWallDayTrip #BeijingTourism #BeijingTravel
